the experience of hearing the new song ahead of the release of the subsequent album.
Got me excited: 1. Go/Animal 2. Spin the Black Circle/Tremor Christ (what a b-side!) 3. Given to Fly 4. World Wide Suicide (but maybe I’m remembering the 4 song leak)
No memory of how I felt: Alive (Evenflow was my first memory), I am Mine (and I was at Bridge for the debut), NAIS
Go Alive Nothing as It Seems Given to Fly Spin the Black Circle Who You Are I am Mine The Fixer World Wide Suicide Can't Deny Me Mind Your Manners
It's really hilarious that WYA was the lead single from No Code.
That pearl jam was amazing. To release a single like that after Vitalogy, Fuck. What balls.
I remember the first time hearing it was during an off season "dry land/weight lifting" training for hockey. At some weird gym. I didnt give a shit about anything else but running up to the speaker in the room and pinning my ear against it.

other than 11 a pretty strong list. I had the most visceral positive reaction to WWS, and the weakest initial reactions to Who You Are and NAIS (I don't want to count Can't Deny Me yet)

Ranking based on my reactions as each was released: Given To Fly - one of the few PJ singles I first heard on the radio; this one might have actually made "it" move a little bit Alive Go Nothing As It Seems STBC Who You Are - Evoked probably my most jarring reaction when I heard it on the radio, I really didn't know what to think. I Am Mine Mind Your Manners WWS Can't Deny Me The Fixer
Current ranking of those songs: Given To Fly Who You Are Nothing As It Seems Go Alive STBC I Am Mine
Big drop off to the who cares group: Mind Your Manners WWS Can't Deny Me The Fixer
Who You Are was shocking when it was released. My friends hated it but I thought it was quite the interesting turn, though never in my top songs list per se. As I age I become more appreciative of many of those songs that didn’t fit the media’s mold for them.
